Hey. I love this song so much that I felt I had to tab it!
This is my version….it’s kind of tough to here the acoustic
guitar through the cool sound effects and keyboards. The into of
this song is pretty creepy and goes on for a minute and a half. I
have no idea how he made it, but its really just a build up to the
song.
